Canada is Boring
The Ontario Child Zoo
Ep. 444
•
Yvonne, Annette, Cécile, Émilie and Marie Dionne were born two months premature on May 28, 1934 just outside Callander, Ontario to Olivia-Édouard and Elzire Dionne.
When they were born, doctors didn’t even know quintuplets were possible, let alone able to survive outside of the womb.
News of the unique birth was picked up by a local newspaper thanks to a tip-off from a relative of the father, and soon it spread all over North America.
Almost destitute, the family tried to make money from the fame. However this plan backfired and all 5 children ended up under intense study and on display for anyone who bought a ticket.
